Welcome to Litsy!

It soared over the sea with its message of change and hope.

I enjoyed the character Zion and how she urged Melody to return to the sea to help her family.

I enjoyed this version of the little mermaid. I am so used to the Disney narrative of this story but I found it refreshing to read this classic story from a different perspective and with new characters. I think it would be fun to read to a class to see their reaction to this version compared to the Disney version.

“This is where I want to be”
This is one of the main concepts of the little mermaids stories. The grass is greener on the other side concept. Classic line.

This is one of my favorite pages from the book. Its the climax and it indeed gives the effect of the climax. So many things happening at once without looking cluttered. So many different creatures and colors, beautifully drawn. I love the art!!!

The retelling of the classic “The Little Mermaid” the imagery is so detailed for a water colored book. Each page you could stare at for so long! So many things to look at and take in! Love!

This variation to the Little Mermaid tale is absolutely amazing! And, of course the illustrations are breathtaking. Definitely a longer #PictureBook , but well worth the journey. Letter L #BBRC

We lost a national treasure today.

Great version to share with kids who are not ready for the original. And ask yourself, what are we sacrificing of ourselves to gain acceptance? As adults are we expecting anyone to sacrifice a part of their identity?
